Here are a bunch of little utility programs I compiled or migrated from
Debian. They have all been compiled against a Debian slink release with
2.2.13 kernel (AKA Materhorn), but they should all run on just about any LRP
system.
Installation Instructions - Just copy the binaries to /usr/local/bin
via floppy, scp, or whatever, and backup the local package.
ae2vi.rc Instructions:
- Copy the ae2vi.rc file to /etc/ (replacing the one already there)
- If running Eiger, edit /bin/vi. Change the line that starts ae to:
- ae -f /etc/ae2vi.rc ${1+"$@"}
- Backup the etc package to save your changes

ADVANCED USERS ONLY! A version of the grep 'Do-All' POSIXness script that includes a working mail command. To use,
strip the mail() and smtp-out() procedures from your current /bin/grep
script (Materhorn/Eiger) or /bin/POSIXness (2.9.x), and replace with the mail() procedure from this script.
LRP 2.9.x users: You may have to change the 'mnc' command to 'nc'.
Make sure you have the $CR and $LF shell variables defined. Updated 10-14-00: Fixed some problems when attatching files,
the tendency for message text to get expanded by the shell, and
general script cleanup.
